In this second GTD + AI episode of GTD Gems, Meg Edwards sits down with Kerry Gallivan, Certified GTD Coach and AI Integration Expert, to explore next action thinking. Kerry shows how AI can turn rough, messy notes into a short list of clear next actions, and how one simple word, "remember," teaches your AI to follow your GTD standards every time. The part that doesn't change: you still set the priorities and move every action into your trusted system.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

👉 How AI can turn unstructured notes into a concise list of next actions

👉 How the "remember" command teaches AI to start every next action with a verb and capture complete Waiting For items

👉 Why your priorities and your trusted system still belong to you, not the chat
